We received the new Battlestar Galactica series here in Malaysia. What's interesting was that the characters used a lot of the F-word. No, not that one.

'FRACK'

As in...

'Get the FRACK out'
'Kill those FRACKING Cylons!'
'FRACK you!'

I was wondering if they used the original F-word (You know what I mean) back in the US or did they changed it when it came to our shores.

Can anyone tell me?

Frak was actually used in the original BSG series... though not as often and with a little more subtlety...
That's because the old show was a comic book kiddie one compared to the new show.

'Frak' in BSG and 'frell' on Farscape. Kind of sad that they had to make up new words to pretend they weren't saying what everyone knew they were.
